It likely is. > if so, how do I tell it where the proper libraries are? Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/X11R6/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH or add it to /etc/ld.so.conf (probably before /usr/X11R6/lib) and run ldconfig. > is there a way to tell what X modules are currently loaded (not kernel > modules)?

But this problem is unlikely to be related to X server modules. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
